What additional rights should the LGBT folks be given? The last right they didn't have was marriage but like you said that was done 10 freaking years ago. People will have their opinions about certain groups, but you can't force people to not have their opinions. At least no in a Democratic country. That is bordering very close to thought policing. Discrimination against groups of people is already illegal, so what more do you want?
You are struggling to stay on topic. I am explaining to you why increased representation of institutionally oppressed groups is a good thing. You are going on a tirade about some completely irrelevant rant regarding thought policing. I haven’t said anything about forcing people to have opinions, nor have I made statements regarding additional legislation that needs to be passed.
I think you need to improve on understanding how to stay on topic and critically think outside of your own bubble. Reread this thread and read my initial response. My initial response was about unconscious bias and how the assumption that all equally qualified people are being given the same opportunities is demonstrably false. I provided you pages and pages of research that you can read to deepen your understanding of this phenomenon. You are having an increasingly irrational and hostile response to this information, presumably because it challenges your worldview. To be fair that is a common psychological response, and hopefully one you can grow from.
